tomatoes ARE vegetables

[quote=xXShadowAssassinXx]just wanted to say that tomatoes ARE vegetables. i see so many people saying their not vegetables that it becomes so annoying. the information is out there people, so look for it and educate yourselfs![/quote]

[quote=Meiyjhe]Tomatoes are both considered fruit and vegetable according to wikipedia [spoiler=fruit]"A tomato is the edible, often red fruit from the plant Solanum lycopersicum, commonly known as a tomato plant."[/spoiler][spoiler=vegetable]"While it is botanically a fruit, it is considered a vegetable for culinary purposes (as well as by the United States Supreme Court, see Nix v. Hedden), which has caused some confusion."[/spoiler](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomato) So yes, you are right, but the real question is: Why make a thread about this? :P[/quote]

[quote=xXShadowAssassinXx]because everyone keeps claiming that cientifically it is not a vegetable and it pisses me off[/quote]

[quote=Meiyjhe]Well, they are right. Botanically (which is kinda scientific) it is considered a fruit, not a vegetable. Culinary it is considered a vegetable however. And still, why make a thread about it? Why does this piss you off? :P Does not make sense to me :P[/quote]

[quote=xXShadowAssassinXx]because so many people keep saying that cientifically it is not a vegetable when it is. that even happens in tv shows. its just wrong.[/quote]
